The Tournon Mathilda Viognier Marsanne 2023 is a characterful Australian white wine that perfectly reflects the elegant yet fresh style of the Victoria wine region. This blend of Viognier and Marsanne combines aromatic expressiveness with mineral clarity and epitomises modern Australian white wine with a distinct sense of place. The grapes are deliberately harvested at optimal ripeness to preserve freshness, natural acidity and aromatic precision, whilst consistently avoiding overripeness.


The vines are rooted in podzolic soils composed of red ferruginous clays over schist, which lend the wine its pronounced minerality, structure and depth. After harvest, the grapes are destemmed and gently pressed, before undergoing cold settling for 48 hours. Alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tanks preserves the freshness and fruit typical of the grape varieties. The subsequent ageing on the fine lees for five months lends the wine additional texture and complexity without overshadowing its distinct style. The result is a well-balanced Viognier-Marsanne white wine that harmoniously combines fruit, freshness and structure, whilst clearly emphasising the grape varieties and terroir.
